MANGO OTAI
This recipe was taken from ThePolynesianKitchen blogspot. "This is a traditional Polynesian beverage. Watermelon or apple can be used instead of mango; experiment with the recipe and create your own tradition." -- I have reduced the recipe by half, to make a smaller quantity; you may double, as needed. **I believe it would be even more fabulous with some rum; pineapple, mango, coconut...use your imagination!

POLYNESIAN WATERMELON DRINK ('OTAI)
''Otai' is a fruit drink which originated in Tonga and is usually made as a summertime refreshment. It is a blend of water, coconut milk, and any variety of pulped tropical fruit such as coconut, watermelon, mango, and pineapple but is almost always watermelon as it is plentiful in Tonga. A small amount of sugar may be added, although the recipe is considerably sweet on its own. I lived in Sydney many moons ago and the Polynesian families drank this by the gallons in the summer. Soooo refreshing and yummy! Serve over ice cubes.
